BEFORE THE SECOND ACT BEGINSA Poem by Miss SharonBEFORE THE SECOND ACT BEGINS It's 2A.M. and I sit on the edge of sanity wrapped within a need like a token of love with one hand clapping in the silence. The compass to happiness lies broken like a lark in prime-time, broad-band illusion. Part of me remembers this play on stage and knows the second act is always better... Yet tonight as sleep once again locks herself in a different room, I am a worn and wrinkled sleeve who always leaves before the second act begins. ************
